Unit Overview

Imagine you are at recess playing a kickball game with friends, an argument breaks out about who is pitching next, what do you do?
Imagine you are working with a partner on a school project and you both are having a hard time agreeing on a subject, what do you do?
Well don't fret! In my creative dance unit "The Action Word Dance" you will not only learn ways to express yourself, you will also learn ways to take care of yourself and others. You will be working on creating a dance with a partner. You and your partner will have to agree/compromise on what to do and how to move. Participating in this class will help you to solve real life conflict that may arise.
